It’s the last week of summer as fall officially begins next week on September 22. As the Garden’s team begins to prune back some of the summer blooms, now’s the time to take a deeper look at some of the plants that give the Garden its backbone, and that’s exactly what Georgiann Keller has done in this week’s What’s Blooming audio blog. Take a listen below and then make sure to get your tickets in advance to see them in person. And don’t forget, the Spider Pavilion has been replanted and has an entirely new look! The Members-only Presale is happening now, so get your tickets for that too!
